The Yak 15 one of the first jet fighters the russians made and it was based off of a piston engine fighter. The Yak 17 was an improved version of it.

I first made a propeller powered plane, and then decided to convert it to a jet, as the russians did.

It has good flight characteristics, and it is indeed faster than the original prop plane I made, however it is a little slow for a jet; don't expect to exceed 500 mph often.
